It Can Wait

Texting And Driving: It REALLY Can Wait

from: gettyimages.com

I recently found out that a family member has passed away. He was crossing the street and a driver who was going 25 mph over the speed limit while texting hit him. I still have no words to portray how i'm feeling.... All I know is it seems so unreal. It is ironic actually, how all these commercials by AT &T. They launched their Driving- It Can Wait pledge . 

I guess the point I am trying to make is, it really can wait. You always think that it would never happen to you, or you are way too cautious to get in an accident but the thing is, it CAN happen. 

It may not happen today, tomorrow, or a year from now. But there is ALWAYS that chance. We know that we are all occasionally guilty of doing this, but before you pick up that phone, just remember the consequences that might happen. I don't want to be a downer but this incident just opened my eyes, that something as small  as texting can change someone's life.
